The Essence is smooth and silky with Premal's transcendent vocals, ambient grooves, keyboard and hand percussion. The Gayatri Mantra, the oldest mantra known to mankind is the centerpiece for this truly meditative album.

Deva Premal's debut album has become a best-seller and is one of the most popular albums in the New Age world.

“Premal blesses us with a rendition of this most ancient of mantras that is quite possibly the most moving ever recorded.” New Age Retailer, US

“Sensual rhythms which are compelling and seemingly come from the inside out, draw the listener in layer by layer. Above all, I am touched by the combination of strength, purity and the delicateness I hear in Deva's voice.” Backroads Music, US
